Abstract (en)
A pipe handling apparatus (1) conveys pipes (5) singly, via a screw feed mechanism (11) having a flat entry portion (12) which ensures singulation, to a pipe bundling mechanism (21). The mechanism (21) has movable side portions (22, 23) which form the pipes (5) into an hexagonal bundle before they are secured together and discharged from the mechanism (21).
